Continuing to show utter contempt for Israel as it seeks a durable peace with its neighbors, Hamas and the Palestinian Authority are again working to perpetuate an endless war with the Jewish state.
Monday, Jordan submitted to the UN Security Council, on behalf of Mahmoud Abbas’ PA, a draft resolution creating a strict timeline for Israeli withdrawal to pre-1967 borders.
Never mind profound and legitimate Israeli fears about security — rubbed raw by an elaborate network of Gaza terror tunnels exposed during this year’s hostilities with Hamas, followed by a fresh wave of PA-incited terrorist attacks against innocent civilians in recent weeks.
Never mind that Israel has been ready and willing to negotiate a deal in good faith — only to run head-first into a Palestinian leadership with no interest whatsoever in coexistence.
Fortunately, the United States sees through the ruse, with the State Department condemning the resolution for setting “arbitrary deadlines,” which are “more likely to curtail useful negotiations than to bring them to a successful conclusion.”
“The resolution fails to account for Israel’s legitimate security needs,” added the Foggy Bottom spokesman.
In this bad-cop, worse-cop game, Hamas plays the latter — so overt in its rejectionism that it makes the Palestinian Authority’s craven cynicism look downright responsible.
Hamas showed its hateful face again on Sunday, as it forced 37 Palestinian war orphans from Gaza to return home rather than visit Israel and the West Bank on a trip intended to strengthen mutual understanding.
This, said Hamas, “was a suspicious visit that aimed to normalize our children with the Zionist occupation.”
That is how they think. If you can even call it thought anymore.
